Keith Sternal had his new Odom in the water for its inaugural Points appearance; Welcome, Keith! RD Chris Staiger chose a combination of Medium and Long courses. Jess Atkinson dominated with Six Bullets. Well sailed, Jess!

Keith Sternal took over as RD for the Soling Fleet where long-time Argonaut Filippo Busalacchi made his first appearance after a long hiatus. Welcome back, Filippo!

REMINDER: Next Saturday is the IOM Fun Regatta. Stay tuned for details….
